THE DEALER
(Bob Ruzicka)

Jack of diamonds, queen of spades
Fingers tremble and the memory fades
And it's a foolish man who tries to bluff the dealer

Jokers laughed and lady luck smiled
The aces were high and the deuces were wild
When you're down and losin', everyone's a cheater

CHORUS [FIRST VERSION]:You can't win and you can't break even
You can't get out of the game
You shouldn't stay but you ain't leavin'
'Cos your luck may change again

Just when things were going fine
Someone jumped you from behind
When you're down and losin', everyone's a cheater

CHORUS [2D VERSION]: You can't win and you can't break even
You can't get out of the game
You tried your luck but
Twenty-one beats nineteen every time

REPEAT FIRST TWO STANZAS
